LP gas conversion:
IMPORTANT: Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.
No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas specified on the
model/serial rating plate for use with a dierent gas without consulting the serving
gas supplier. See “Gas Conversions” section.
GAS SUPPLY LINE
Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" (1.9 cm) rigid pipeo the range location. A smaller size
pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas sup y. Pipe-joint compounds that
resist the action of LP gas must be used. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2
(1.3 cm) minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in
the system.
Gas Shut-o Valve:
•
The gas supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. his valve
should be located in the same room but external to the range. It should be in a
location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff
valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas o the range.
